Youth Conference on Justice & Freedom

youth! (14-18ish)

Join We Players for an action-packed afternoon on Alcatraz, SATURDAY, JULY 23, 2011. We'll explore the island via a treasure hunt, view the current gallery exhibit displaying youth perspectives on the Alcatraz themes, enjoy food and drink, group conversation, and create a collective art project, which will remain on the island for public viewing in the cell house gallery through mid-August.

Check our website for more details on this conference and the Faces We Wear exhibition currently on display in the cell house, sharing stories and artwork from teens at the San Francisco Juvenile Justice Center.

THANK YOU SUPPORTERS!

We Players needs your financial support to support those creating inspiring art on Alcatraz.

Thank you!

... the process...

The National Park Service invited We Players to create site specific performances on Alcatraz Island. The themes -ACCESS. ISOLATION. JUSTICE. INCARCERATION. REDEMPTION.

As we humbly approach the site, build relationships with collaborators and unpack the layers of history, we are sharing our thoughts here. As always, We Players is dedicated to the expansion of the bounded stage and We invite all to participate in our co-creation of art and re-envisioning of society. Please join in the conversation!
